Abstract for String Quartet

Sometimes, you have to mix things up a bit. 

In this piece, I explore a synthetic scale that I've just had sitting around someplace (cause, yes, I do indeed keep synthetic scales just lying around on pieces of paper).

I like the results -so I figured I'd share. Hope you all enjoy!

The textures are interesting. I like the willingness to play with dissonance, I am trying to coax myself into that. Interesting ending. All in all, a good piece in my opinion, but it feels a little confined. I don't think there is a way to break out of that unless you are Debussy or a supercomputer, though. 

Also, If you could do one with the super locrian with a flat 7th that would be the †its!! Cuz I am literally obsessed with that scale and it would make me happy to see it explored!

I've thought about exploring that mode!

wait no its not the super locrian with a flat seventh sorry, its the lydian with a flat 7th that is a mode of the super locrian. I think Debussy uses it a lot in sirenes

Isn’t it the Eb augmented, at least in the first part?

D Eb F G Ab B C D 

That's the scale I used. I suppose you could say Eb with an augmented 5th...
